Berwyn Police Blotter
Cops round up wanted man, pot-toting juvenile

More after-school shenanigans: police were dispatched to a “fight in progress"at 15th and Highland. An officer saw a group of hoodie-wearers (matching the combatants’ descriptions) walking northbound in the 1300 block of Highland, and stopped them. One was a man who at first claimed he was “Cesar Avilas"and said he was 18 years old, though when asked his birth date, gave one that would have made him 21. He then showed police a temporary labor ID with the name “Cesar Avilas” and his own picture. Because of the lack of solid identification, he was fingerprinted, and turned out to be Juan Soriano, age 22, of Cicero. Soriano had two active arrest warrants out of Cicero. Berwyn police charged him with disorderly conduct, then handed him over for those warrants. A second subject was a 15-year-old male juvenile, from the 1800 block of Lombard in Cicero. For some reason, he initially told police he was 17, then changed it to 16, then finally admitted he was 15. He was carrying some marijuana, for which he received a possession ticket. He, too, was charged with disorderly conduct.
